2 months old!

I can't believe Colby is already 2 months old! I feel like this time is flying by. I have to say that gettin glaid off was a blessing in disguise. I could not have gone back to work yet! I enjoy time with my little man way too much as he is "talking" more and more and just becoming quite the little performer. He's so cute! He already roll onto his side and has been smiling for a few weeks. He is just starting to laugh! As I type he is laying on the play mat that gramma Lori and papa Bill got him. Ooops he's crying. I'll have to type more later!

Dec 26th:

Ok, so I'm finally getting back to this blog. It's been a crazy few days with the Holidays and the snowy weather. It has literally snowed everyday since I've been home. I have never seen it snow this much in Renton. We don't have a whole lot of accumulated snow but it sure looks like Christmas outside!

(Our snow angels. The snow from two days later filled theses in completely.)

So Colby had a first today, he rolled from his back to his right side and back again. He's far from rolling over, yay!, but it definitely was a milestone that made his momma happy.


Colby and I have been in Washinton for just over a week and we've had so much fun visiting Papa and Gramma! It's been so nice to have all the extra hands to hold my chubby monkey but it's seeming to take its toll on him. He's been a little overwhelmed lately and he's been a bit fussy. I'm sure a little of that is due to him growing and just not being in a familiar environment. Either way, we'll get through it just fine.

Meeting Netta for the first time.

Meeting Papa Johnny for the first time.

I'll blog later about Christmas and presents and family! Have a great weekend!

dedication cancelled due to weather.

Well our pastor called to cancell services tomorrow all together. Weather is a little too crazy right now. As I type we are on our way home from Bellingham. It feels like we're in a blizzard! We had a great time with the Taubels and Delaney was ADORABLE in her first dance recital! I will blog more tomorrow on the recital and Colby turning 2 months! Woo hoo. :)

8 weeks

So Colby is eight weeks now and has been quite busy. This last week he hit a great growth spurt. He weighs in at 10lbs 6 oz, is 22 1/4 inches long, and his head is 15 inches around. I can't believe my baby is getting so big already. He's pretty proportionate with his measurements in the 25-50% range. Not too bad!

He had a first this week....Stephanie flew into town and we decided since she had never been to Disneyland we needed to go. I'll post pics later but we had a great time! The park was all set up for Christmas and we even had "snow". Colby was allowed to go with us on Pirates of the Carribbean, The Haunted Mansion, Nemo's Submarine ride, and It's a Small World. He slept through most of the park but was awake on Pirates and It's a Small World (he started screaming at the end due to being hungry! lol).

We are finishing getting packed and are ready to get on a plane to see Grandpa Bill, Grandma Lori, Ranetta and Johnny! We can't wait to spend our first Christmas with them, and it's going to be a White Christmas! Yay!

Just a few new pics.

Colby and I went to the Santa Barbara Zoo with Auntie Shayna on December 8th. He seemed to enjoy it, well as much as a sleeping baby does! Our favorite part was the giraffes. We might actually have a picture to frame and hang in his room, which is safari themed. We have had a very adventure filled last 7 weeks and have had a little break from company. However this weekend Colby gets to meet his Auntie Stephanie! Boy momma has lots of friends. :) But thats ok, Colby can never have too many Aunts or Uncles to love him and hold him so momma can have a break! We'll be in Washington next week so stay tuned for many many more pictures.
